Watch the moon turn red during a total lunar eclipse in March

A total lunar eclipse will flush the moon red across the Western Hemisphere. On Thursday night into Friday morning, the Earth will cast a shadow that totally blocks the moon. Best viewing will be from North America and South America. Parts of Europe and Africa may catch a glimpse. There’s no need for eclipse glasses or any special equipment. The full moon blushes coppery red during a total lunar eclipse because of bits of sunlight filtering through Earth’s atmosphere. The next full lunar eclipse will be in September and will be visible from parts of Asia, Africa, Australia and Europe.
